This is the message I'm getting: "Bummer! Make sure the implementation of description matches the directions. Hint: Use string interpolation!"
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
init(title: String, author: String, tag: Tag) {
self.title = title
self.author = author
self.tag = tag
}
func description() -> String {
let alpha = "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag)"
return alpha
}
}
let firstTag = Tag(name: "swift")
let firstPost = Post(title: "iOS Development", author: "Apple", tag: firstTag)
let postDescription = firstPost.description()

Also, you don't need to create a constant you can just return the result inside the method and remember, structs creates an initializer under the hood for you, you don't need to create one.
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
func description() -> String {
return "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag.name)"
}
}
let tag = Tag(name: "swift")
let firstPost = Post(title: "iOS Development", author: "Apple", tag: tag)
let postDescription = firstPost.description()
